APRÉS Gel Nail Polish 5-Color Combo Set — Bright Nude Pastels, HEMA & TPO-Free, Brush-X Included

APRÉS Gel Couleur Combo Set is a five-shade collection of highly pigmented, bright nude pastel gel polishes that cure to a no-tack finish and include the in-bottle Brush-X for precise application.

Designed for both salon technicians and at-home nail artists, this combo brings easy application, professional-looking opacity, and cleaner removal of extras thanks to a pure gel formula. The set contains five complementary pastel nude shades that deliver full coverage with thinner strokes, plus APRÉS’s Brush-X—an integrated in-bottle brush made from dense PBT fibers that mimics the feel of a Japanese nail art brush. Each shade cures quickly under LED light and is formulated without HEMA or TPO.

How does the Brush-X improve application?

The Brush-X is built into the bottle and uses PBT fibers to offer a compact, dense tip that helps you lay down color precisely. It reduces the need to buy separate brushes and makes creating clean cuticles and nail art strokes simpler for pros and beginners alike.

• In-bottle Brush-X prevents extra tools and saves prep time
• PBT fiber density mimics Japanese brush control
• Better tip retention for thin, even layers
• Helps achieve sharp lines for nail art or edge-to-edge coverage

Will these gels give full coverage in one coat?

Yes—these polishes are formulated to be highly opaque, so they offer strong color payoff even in minimal amounts. Because the pigments are concentrated, applying thinner coats actually improves the finish and reduces pooling or ridging.

• Medium viscosity for smooth, controlled application
• Highly pigmented so less product is needed
• Thin layers prevent streaking while keeping opacity
• Great for both single-shade manicures and layered nail art

How long does curing take and what finish should I expect?

Each coat cures in about 30 seconds under a standard LED lamp, producing a pure gel finish without a sticky inhibition layer. The cured surface is ready for topcoat or immediate wear, offering a salon-grade sheen and durability.

• 30-second cure time per coat with LED light
• Pure gel formula leaves no tacky residue after curing
• High-gloss, salon-quality finish when sealed with topcoat
• Optimized for long-lasting color payoff

Are these gels safe for sensitive skin and what chemicals are excluded?

The Gel Couleur formulas are free from HEMA and TPO, two common ingredients some people avoid. While that reduces exposure to those specific chemicals, always follow standard nail safety: patch test new products and consult a pro if you have known allergies.

• Formulated without HEMA and TPO
• Pure gel base minimizes residue after curing
• Recommended to patch-test if you have sensitivities
• Use with proper lamp and removal technique for best results
